Currently, the Tour Championship has a points reset and five top seeds who can automatically win the FedEx Cup by hoisting the Tour Championship trophy.

Thomas is ranked fifth in the FedEx Cup rankings coming into the TOUR Championship and has a good chance of winning the biggest prize in golf with a solo second finish on Sunday.

TV ratings and fan interest spike whenever he's playing and in the mix. "And, of course, the players will know exactly where they stand at all times while in play, which will ratchet up the drama, outcome and volatility of the competition down the stretch".

After hearing Andy Pazder, the PGA Tour's chief tournament and competitions officer deliver a presentation on the changes, Casey said that he was receptive to the idea of the strokes-based scoring system.

These changes aim to eliminate awkward moments like the one that occurred past year when Xander Schauffele won the Tour Championship but Justin Thomas captured the FedExCup.

Justin Thomas has played down an injury scare ahead of next week's Ryder Cup as he tries to become the first player to win back-to-back FedEx Cup titles. That may happen again. Holding a regulation tournament and giving a player a 10-shot head start didn't sit that well with a few.
